Alpine A110 R Ultime: The €265,000 Finale Before the EV Switch


Alpine is wrapping up its 70th anniversary with a massive mic drop. They’ve just released a cinematic farewell to the petrol-powered era, starring Pierre Gasly and Zinedine Zidane, while officially handing over the keys to the brand’s electric future. The star of the show? The Alpine A110 R Ultime.

The Final Petrol Masterpiece

This isn’t just a trim level; it’s the most extreme A110 ever built. Limited to just 110 units, this “grand finale” packs a 345 hp punch and hits 100 km/h in a blistering 3.8 seconds. If you want the ultra-exclusive “La Bleue” version, be prepared to fork out €330,000. It’s a track-focused beast with 160 kg of extra downforce, adjustable Öhlins dampers, and a titanium Akrapovič exhaust. CEO Philippe Krief is calling it the ultimate tribute to the second generation before things get “really exciting” in early 2026.

The Electric Pivot

While we’re salivating over the Ultime, the future is already plugged in. Pierre Gasly has already put his name down for the upcoming A390—the brand’s high-performance electric fastback. We’re also seeing the first fruit of the new Hypertech Alpine engineering centre in Viry-Châtillon: the A290 Rallye. It’s a 100% electric customer competition hatch that channels the legendary R5 Alpine vibes but with zero emissions and a hydraulic handbrake for those tight hairpins.
